How do you do those nice link thingies where you just say it's here and the word here is the link?

BBC News

Quote that then you'll see how it works.

I know how a heart transplant works but I don't know how to do one.

[Bongo]

You get the address you want to link to and then put on the end, then type the text you want the link to be and put after so

So you end up with

Code:

[url=ADDRESS]TEXT[/url]

Sorry making no sense at all

So do I have to type one of these [

Followed by url=://

Then paste the url

Then type one of these]

Then type the words I want peeps to see

Then type [/url]

Or is there a quicker way?

Just looked at that again, it wasn't supposed to come out sarky.

hit the 4th button on the second row (looks like a world), you'll get this

Code:

[url][/url]

after the first url type = and paste the link

Code:

[url=ADDRESS][/url]

Type what text you want between ][

Code:

[url=ADDRESS]TEXT[/url]

If you type the text first and highlight it before clicking the button the http:// bit will magically be put around the text

Before I hit the Hyperlink button that you told me to press at the beginning?

[Bongo]

Yes, you can do it both ways, thought the first way was simpler!

This thread is my afternoons entertainment ... keep going Tom & Bongo.

[Colchester Kev]

I cant find a picture of Bongo wading through treacle

[TightEnd]

Tom, how do you get Bongo to help so quickly?

All tips readily welcomed

If I type and then highlight before pressing the button, won't the adress and the text and everything be lumped together?
